General safety instructions
IMPORTANT:
Do not use damaged cables with this equipment.
Damaged connectors may seriously damage this equipment.
Never seal the monitor in a plastic bag.
Never use the monitor in full sun with a Raincover.
Before using the monitor make sure that the product is not damaged, that the protective glass is not
broken and that the connector do not have missing pins, foreign objects inside the housing.
The CineMonitorHD needs to be in a ventilated area for a proper cooling. Prolonged use in confined
environment without ventilation can damage the monitor.
Cables
The cables must be in good condition and adapted to the environment where you are working. A bad
quality or wrong-wired cable may damage this equipment or other equipment attached to it and/or
create interferences.
The video cable must be adapted for carrying HD SDI signals. Proper 75 Ωconnectors must be used.
Always check the connector before plugging a cable to your monitor.
Transvideo offers high quality cables for cameras, power supplies and other equipment. Contact
Transvideo S.A. or its local representative in case of need.

INTRODUCTION
Page 8 CineMonitorHD 3DView RF
Installation
The CineMonitorHD must be securely mounted on the camera or on its location of use. Several
mounting points with ¼-20” nut are present on this equipment for a secured professional use.
Do not use the monitor with loose fixation or damaged brackets for your own safety and that of
others working with you.
Transvideo manufactures high quality brackets and accessories for the comfort of use and security
for the equipment and user. Please contact Transvideo S.A. or its local representative in case of need
or visit http://www.hd4dp.com.
Power requirements
Only DC Voltage powers this product.
AC voltage can be used with an appropriate AC/DC converter
Recommended AC power adaptor for CinemonitorHD 3DView RF is the Transvideo AL63.
The input power voltage range is extremely wide from 10 to 36 V DC (except specified differently).
Power instructions
The power consumption slightly varies with the input voltage, the operating temperature and the
equipment configuration. The internal power supply is protected against reverse polarity. Over
voltage may cause severe damages to the equipment and/or to other equipment connected to it.
This product must be used in a properly grounded electrical environment. Ground defects can create
severe problems to the equipment and/or picture quality and may even cause danger for the user.
Turning power On/Off
The ON/OFF Switch is on the back side of the monitor.
The product needs a certain time to reach its nominal brightness.
This time can vary with the temperature.
In OFF position, the power consumption is null.
Galvanic insulation
For safety of use the CineMonitorHD family feature a galvanic insulation of the DC input. Do not
connect the power ground to the chassis of the monitor or to the metallic body of the power
connector in order to keep the galvanic insulation. The galvanic insulation is rated at 1000VDC. The
chassis of the monitor is connected to the video ground.
Anton-Bauer batteries / FuelReader™
TransvideoLabs engineer’s integrated communication between the fuel computer of Logic Series
Digital batteries from Anton-Bauer and CineMonitorHD 3DView RF. The FuelReader™ gives to the
user a view of the remaining available percentage of the battery and the time to run.
WARNING RISK OF FIRE:
It is always recommended to remove the power source from the monitor when you do not use it
and/or when you travel. Especially if you place the monitor in a closed environment (bag, box, …).

INTRODUCTION

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Operator Manual Rev 1.1 Page 11
User interface
The CineMonitorHD 3DView RF family offers a user interface common to all sizes. Some functions are
directly accessible from the "direct functions" keypad, others from the menu with use of the rotating
knob.
The CineMonitorHD screen is partitioned in two areas:
①The picture zone displays the picture from the camera in 16/9 format
②The tools zone displays tools and measurements in the remaining area of the screen.
Figure 2 show the front of a 8” CineMonitorHD 3DView RF.
Figure 2: CineMonitorHD8 3DView RF front
Direct functions
Several direct functions are available from the keypad.
One short press on a key gives access to the function.
One long press (more than 2 seconds) on a key gives access to the sub functions of the related
function (if any). Pressing F1…F4 enables to adjust those sub functions.
Depending of the function, options and environment, the content of F1…F4 may differ. Pressing a key
will activate or deactivate the sub function. An activated sub function is highlighted by an orange text
while an inactivated function prompts in white.
In some specific case, F4 may extend the selection to a second page of sub menu.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Page 12 CineMonitorHD 3DView RF
Rotating knob
The menu knob is a rotating encoder with a push function. It is used to access and navigate in the
menus, adjust some parameter values, validate and exit functions by turning or pushing it.
One sort press on the knob gives access to the menu. Rotating the knob enables to navigate
between the menu items. Pushing the knob gives access to the sub menu of the highlighted menu
item.
Selecting EXIT exits from the current menu level to the previous (if any). A long push on the knob exits
from the menu. Exiting the menu is also possible by automatic temporization, adjustable in MENU /
TECHNICAL.
Wireless Specificity
In wireless mode, the CineMonitorHD 3DView RF must be associated to a Transvideo TitanHD Tx. No
other wireless system can work with the CineMonitorHD 3DView RF.
A LINK menu is available when WIRELESS RECEIVER input is selected. It gives access to the
wireless settings.
Two wireless modes are available: Broadcast and P2P. Both CineMonitorHD 3DView RF and TitanHD
Tx have to use the same mode.
In P2P mode, the link is possible only between the paired transmitter and receiver.
The Broadcast mode allows to connect up to 6 receivers (CineMonitorHD 3DView RF and/or TitanHD
Rx) to one transmitter (TitanHD Tx). Each receiver must be paired to the transmitter.
Fore more information about pairing operation, see the next section "Module Association".
3D Specificity
The 3D menu is available only when WIRELESS 3D input is selected.
The measurement tools display the 2 signals analysis simultaneously. Each spot uses a specific color
(adjustable in MENU / 3D / COLOR).
About Wireless inputs
WIRELESS RECEIVER input displays the image that the transmitter carriers:
- in case of 3D video source, WIRELESS RECEIVER input displays a side by side image
- in case of 2D video source, WIRELESS RECEIVER input displays the 2D picture
WIRELESS 3D input only accepts 3D side by side signals carried by a TitanHD Tx 3DView

Operator Manual Rev 1.1 Page 13
MODULE ASSOCIATION
IMPORTANT:
Both the transmitter and receiver need to be associated (or paired).
The operation can be performed in P2P mode or BROAD mode.
There is no need to perform the module association in both modes.
Step 1
Turn on the TitanHD Tx. During the startup, keep on pressing Back key until the message "Push OK
to register" is displayed.
Step 2
Turn on the CineMonitorHD 3DView RF. Go to MENU / LINK / ASSOCIATION. "Associate modules"
appears on the screen.
Step 3
Select "Yes" on the CineMonitorHD 3DView RF and press "OK" on the TitanHD Tx. "Linking…"
appears on both monitor and transmitter.
Step 4
"Link OK" appears, then the system starts up.

The brightness of the reticule and of the spot as well as the background transparency in overlay
mode (for waveform and vectoscope) can be adjusted in MENU / TOOLS / MEASUREMENT.
White and black clipping alert can be configured in MENU / TOOLS / LIMITS. The same limits are
used for the waveform and the histogram. Setting these limits is useful to have a visual alert on the
measurement tools if there is a risk of overexposure or of loss of black details.
When using the 3D mode the measurement tools display the two inputs simultaneously. It is valid for
the Waveform, Histogram and Vectorscope. To identify clearly the source each spot uses a specific
color. The colors used are the same as those used for the 3D representation. Selection is done in
MENU / 3D / COLOR, i.e.:
①using the HISTOGRAM with RED/CYAN colors will display input 1 in RED and input 2 in CYAN.
The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in white, the differences in RED or
CYAN.
②using the HISTOGRAM with RED/BLUE colors will display input 1 in RED and input 2 in BLUE.
The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in MAGENTA, the differences in RED or
BLUE.
